Introduced in 1971, the Aérospatiale SA 315B Lama stands as a single-engine utility helicopter crafted to meet the specific requirements outlined by the Indian Armed Forces. The need was for an aircraft proficient in operating effectively within hot and high conditions, specifically in the challenging terrains of the Himalayan mountain ranges. Aérospatiale conceptualized the new design by integrating the lightweight airframe of the Alouette II with specific components and powerplants from the subsequent Alouette III model. The primary focus was on ensuring exceptional performance in high-altitude operations and elevating the service ceiling of the SA 315B. This helicopter achieved global success, emerging as a top choice for rotorcraft operations in mountainous environments.
Red Box is thrilled to present a comprehensive range of ground power and support equipment tailored for the SA 315B Lama aircraft. Our offerings encompass tugs, ground power units, start power units and more, precisely attuned to the specific requirements of the SA 315B Lama.
Included in our assortment is the RBSC100 continuous power unit—ideal for diagnostic work, pre-flight checks, or continuous equipment powering during operations without depleting onboard aircraft batteries—and the RB50A for starting the aircraft, minimizing the risk of hot starts. Furthermore, our TC3000 range provides a combination of start and continuous power in a single unit designed explicitly for SA 315B Lama aircraft.
